Help with mid 1800's farm house Pendant or Pin

I found this Sunday at a mid to late 1800s farm house. My buddy also found one but it was bent in half. Theres a clean spot in it where I rubber it with a cloth and soap. That spot looks to be silver or maybe pewter. There is a crook and key crossed over a bundle of hay theres also a sickle. Any help would be appreciated.

Ocassionally I will post various "clues" which may not seem like much now, but may serve to help identify the item in more detail in the furture.

The item shown here is very similar to one I posted earlier. The difference being, the first one did not say who made it. But in this example it is clearly identified as being made by ...

"C. J. Bainbridge" "Grange Supplies" "Syracuse, N.Y."

[ Nickel-plated cased set. 7 Grange implements ]

I found 13 of these so far in an old bottle dump today. Definitely Grange.
